The alarming disease Of this
country is nervous debility and
prostration. 1t goes under
many names but it is essen
italy the same complaint.
Hospitals and private institu-
tons for nervous patients are
crowded. The average Of life
in the United States is de-
creasing every year. Sudden
deaths from nervous collapse
among our business, profess
ional and public men are so
frequent as scarcely to excite
remark. The majority Of sui
cides, committed without ap-
parent reason, or under so-caQed
"depression Of spirits D are
really prompted by nervous
prostration, which is a fruitful
source Of insanity and crime
with all their grief and horror.
These facts are startling.
They threaten the very life Of
the nation. They assail the
springs Of its power and pros
perity. They wreck mar n',ood's
strength and wolllaa's useAu1-
ness and beauty.
Every one should know the
causes. What are they? The
answer is easy and terribly
plain: Our vicious personal
habits; our careless and ]awless
eating and drinking; the IN
tense mental and physical strain
arising from OR mad race after
money, position and influence;
the fears and. struggles OF pow
erty; tie use Of narcotics and
st;mulaats; our fashion Of
turning day into night and
night into Gay; and, briefly,
our desperate willingness to
pay any price for al hours
pleasure or success. So we
burn life's candle at both ends
and fill the luratic asylums
and the graveyaTds.
The disease from which we
suffer and die is, In plain Eng
lish, Nervous Dyspepsia, as it
is seated in the Nerves and in
the organs Of Digestion, Assina-
ilation and Nutrition. Healthy
digestion being inpeded or des-
troyed, the whole body, nerves
included, is literally starved;
even when there is no enact
alton to tell the sad story.
Nervous prostratlon sends
out its warnings: headache
in the morning; a persistent
dull heaviness or aching at the
baseof the brain; wakeiulness;
Joss ofappetite and disgustwith
food; loss Of mental energy and
interest N ordinary duties and
business; restlessness and anx-
i-ty without any assignable
reason; eructatlons; bad
breath; foul mucous on the
teeth; occasional giddiness;
nalp;;ttstt;ion OF the heart; sal
lowness of the skin; coated
tongue and gradual failure Of
strength and ambition.
Tie remedy is a total aban-
donment Of the habits and Gus
toms which cause the disease
in each Individual case, and the
use Of SaoE.er Ertract Of Roots
(Seigsl's SYRUP to cure the
mischief already done. This
great remedy, prepared by the
Shaker Community of Mt. Leb-
anon, II. Y, is especially adapt
ed to eradicate Nervous Dys-
pepsia. To do this it acts
directly and gently but power
fully upon the disordered stonl-
ach, liver and kidneys, restor-
irg their tone and vigor, pro-
noting the secretion OF bile, ex-
pellins waste matters from the
system, and purifying the blood.
